Re: Estate Auction of John Petik

I'm so sad to hear this news. John helped me a lot with some international order, even though i'm not really an active member. He was always helpful and replied to any of my questions.

I will miss him :(

Transparent Resine : How To

Hello Guys,

I just received a broken statue. The problem it's transparent yellow. I believe it's impossible to repair it, since it's transparent, and the glue will always be visible.

Are there any technic to simulate the glued area ?

What do you use for a transparent putty ?

Thanks in advance
